Great off road trail, took about 3 hours from start to finish then another 30 minutes on the fire road to get back to highway 4. Definitely some tricky and tight spots (wouldn’t recommend for stock vehicles) some places have fallen trees across the trail, look for the path that other 4x4s took to get around. The trail wasn’t overgrown. We took this trail in a ‘11 FJ TTUE with 33s, we made it through fine but I’m not gonna say we didn’t clench our butts in some places. Great day trail that is very close to Arnold.
